Burakovsky has a lot of options on where he can play next season. He’s free to sign with any European team. Reports out of Sweden indicate that Malmo’s biggest rival, Rogle BK, who were relegated from the Elitserien this year, are interested in Burakovsky’s services. Helsingborgs Dagblad reached out to Rogle’s manager Anders Carlsson, who didn’t deny the team’s interest.

According to an unofficial Twitter account covering the Otters, @ErieOttersNews, Burakovsky had a deal in place with the Windsor Spitfires who were picking 11th in the CHL Import Draft. They also say it’s “far-fetched” Burakovsky will suit up for the Otters.
